then you have to traditionalist, when you mention bob zell leg, if governor romney becomes president romney, the real question becomes what's the balance between them and what will be his foreign policy philosophy. it doesn't have to be either or, there could be a hybrid but the question is one of the degree and balance and that's a legitimate question. we don't have the answer to it. >> rose: you know foreign leaders. what is their impression of president obama? and his policies? >> one, it's hard to generalize, not to punt on your question because different parts of the world they feel differently. and, indeed, lots of leaders, i'd almost say they're not thinking so much about us. i don't mean this that as a criticism, just an observation. people are preoccupied at home. we've probably entered a moment in history where the weight of the united states is less than it was. it's not that we're in decline. the centrifugal gorses in the world are such that our ability to control international developments is arguably less than it was. >> rose: where do you think we are in terms of the i

it, a very persuasive argument because there are a lot of people even in the intelligence community, bob gates when he was secretary of defense used to make this point, who wonder whether you would ever know if iran took those last few steps when they got between basically having the fuel and making the weapon. we might only know in retrospect. but governor romney has not said exactly with he'd put that line, nor did the israelis. i thought that his sentence where he said "there should never be any daylight between the israelis and the united states" was a very interesting and important one. i think that the obama administration would say, look, if there was no daylight the israelis might well have taken military action by now and the u.s. would be sucked into it. the u.s. would have to join it. so there has been daylight, but the daylight in the obama administration's view has been intended to say to the israelis, "look, we're not at the point yet where they're about to get a bomb, there are other possibilities, including more sanctions and more sabotage." >> rose: prime minister netany
